About the company
North Star Imaging Incorporated, a subsidiary of Illinois Tool Works Inc. headquartered in Rogers, Minnesota, manufactures and services advanced industrial X-ray and computed tomography systems to federal agencies as a prime contractor (94% of recent awards), competing full-and-open rather than under set-asides. The company holds no set-aside certifications; all work is competed or awarded on a sole-source basis without set-aside designation.
North Star Imaging's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward naval and defense agencies. Naval Sea Systems Command leads by both volume and dollar value with 55 awards totaling $11.8 million in combined potential value, followed by Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center with 16 awards worth $5.1 million. The Department of the Army Materiel Command's Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal (7 awards, $5.1 million), Joint Munitions Command (22 awards, $4.8 million), and Research Development and Engineering Command (17 awards, $3.3 million) round out the top five customers by potential value, together representing 55% of combined potential value across all awards. The top five funding agencies account for 41% of all awards by count. The FBI Headquarters Division and NASA Shared Services Center place a higher volume of orders (26 and 22 awards respectively) but in smaller dollar increments—$1.9 million and $710 thousand respectively. Activity has grown steadily from nine awards in 2022 to 27 in 2025, with fifteen awards issued so far in 2026. Twelve awards carrying combined potential value of $1.5 million reach ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure on preventive maintenance and software renewal contracts.
North Star Imaging's concrete capability footprint centers on X-ray and computed tomography system design, manufacture, and maintenance. Recent prime awards include a $3.1 million Naval Sea Systems Command CT vault system (June 2024); a $1.7 million Army Materiel Command purchase order for an X-ray computed tomography system for quality assurance at Letterkenny Army Depot (April 2025); a $1.5 million Air Force Research Laboratory 4D X-ray CT machine (June 2024); a $1.4 million Army Joint Munitions Command X7000 450 KV non-destructive testing system (September 2023); and a $1.4 million Defense Logistics Agency Aviation computed tomography system for the Defense Subsistence Control Review facility in Richmond, Virginia (July 2025). Maintenance work is prevalent across the portfolio: preventive maintenance agreements with annual or multi-year terms, software renewals, emergency repair, and equipment upgrades for systems already deployed at federal facilities. The top NAICS codes reflect this focus—Irradiation Apparatus Manufacturing (80 awards), Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing (62 awards), and Other Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance (22 awards)—alongside smaller volumes of IT software and workstation delivery.
North Star Imaging holds two indefinite delivery contracts with the Army Joint Munitions Command valued at $243.7 thousand (awarded December 2025, ceiling through December 2028) and $2.9 million (awarded March 2023, ceiling through March 2024). Neither vehicle sits on a large government-wide acquisition contract; instead, the company wins most work through individual purchase orders and delivery orders issued directly by customer agencies. Four task orders place work under the Information Analysis Center Multiple-Award Contract, two under the Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract, and one under the One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services vehicle.
In its subcontractor role—6% of recent awards—North Star Imaging delivers X-ray tubes, computed tomography maintenance, radiography services, and equipment components to prime contractors including Leidos, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, Triad National Security, Fluor Marine Propulsion, The Boeing Company, Pantexas Deterrence, Consolidated Nuclear Security, CACI, and HII Mission Technologies. Sub work supports classified and unclassified research, development, test, and evaluation programs at national laboratories (Los Alamos, Y-12, Pantex) and defense contractors' manufacturing enhancement and advanced capability development efforts. The subcontract footprint spans the Department of Energy, the Department of Defense, and NASA, with awards dated from 2024 through mid-2026.
As a subsidiary of Illinois Tool Works Inc., a global industrial manufacturing conglomerate, North Star Imaging benefits from parent-company resources and existing federal relationships; ITW itself holds a portfolio of prime federal contracts and grant awards. The combined federal award history across both North Star Imaging and ITW demonstrates scale and longevity in federal contracting, with North Star Imaging's most recent award dated October 1, 2026 (a $308,319 definitive contract with the Department of State's Bureau of Information Resource Management for IT portfolio alignment support). North Star Imaging competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements and sole-source awards justified by original-equipment-manufacturer status and incumbent contractor position, rather than leveraging small business or other set-aside vehicles.
